Our ESG Commitment

Building a Greener, Fairer Future

At Lily Shippen, we believe recruitment has the power to change businesses for the better, and businesses have the power to change the world. Our Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) commitment is central to how we work. Through initiatives such as our partnership with Tree by Tree, we actively support tree regeneration, environmental restoration, and ethical business practices that benefit people, communities, and the planet.

Our Environmental Impact:

Tree Regeneration and Beyond

Protecting the environment is essential to building a sustainable future. Protecting the environment is essential to building a sustainable future. Protecting the environment is essential to building a sustainable future. Protecting the environment is essential to building a sustainable future.

Through our partnership with Tree by Tree, we contribute to reforestation projects that:

Plant native species to restore natural ecosystems
Improve air quality and carbon capture
Enhance biodiversity by providing vital habitats
Support communities affected by deforestation

For every successful placement, review received, and referral made, we fund the planting of a new tree.

This initiative allows our clients, candidates, and community to play an active role in creating positive environmental change, simply by working with us.

Every tree planted reflects our commitment to leaving the world better than we found it. As we grow, so too does our impact.
